Massey Ferguson 8280 Tractor Parts
8280 parts and accessories
The Massey Ferguson 8280, manufactured from 1997 to 2001, was a popular choice for farmers seeking a reliable and powerful tractor. Powered by a Sisu 7.4L diesel engine producing approximately 180 horsepower, it provided ample power for a variety of tasks. With a PTO horsepower rating of around 150, the 8280 was well-suited for operating implements such as mowers, balers, and tillage equipment.
The Massey Ferguson 8280 was introduced in 1997 as part of the 8200 series, aiming to provide a blend of power and versatility. Production continued until 2001. At its heart lies a Sisu 7.4L 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, delivering approximately 180 horsepower (134 kW). The engine displacement is 7400 cc (451.6 cubic inches). The transmission is a 32-speed partial power shift with electro-hydraulic forward/reverse shuttle. The PTO delivers around 150 horsepower (112 kW) and offers both 540 and 1000 RPM speeds. The hydraulic system boasts a capacity of approximately 29 GPM (110 liters per minute), with typically 3 rear remotes. It features a Category II/III 3-point hitch with a lift capacity of around 10,500 lbs. The 8280 found common application in row crop operations, hay production, livestock management (feeding and manure handling), and various tillage tasks. Compared to other models in the lineup, it occupied a mid-range position, offering more power than smaller utility tractors but less than the larger, more specialized models. Its blend of features and capabilities made it a versatile workhorse on many farms.

Maintenance Tips
- Engine Oil & Filter: Change engine oil and filter every 250-300 hours of operation, using the recommended oil type and a high-quality filter to ensure optimal engine lubrication and performance.
- Hydraulic System: Inspect hydraulic fluid levels regularly and change the hydraulic filter every 500 hours. Use the correct hydraulic fluid type to prevent contamination and maintain proper system pressure.
- Fuel System: Regularly check and clean fuel filters to prevent fuel starvation and maintain optimal engine performance. Drain any water accumulation from the fuel tank to prevent corrosion and injector damage. Consider adding a fuel stabilizer during seasonal storage.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for an extended period, fill the fuel tank to prevent condensation, disconnect the battery, and store it in a dry place. Ensure all fluids are at the correct levels and grease all lubrication points.
